SeparatorMenuItem

A centred heading that labels the rows under it. Pressing it does nothing.


Menu menu = new Menu("Player Options", "Player Options");
MenuController.AddMenu(menu);
menu.AddMenuItem(new SeparatorMenuItem("Protection"));
menu.AddMenuItem(new MenuCheckboxItem("God Mode", "Nothing can hurt you.", false));
menu.AddMenuItem(new MenuCheckboxItem("Invisible", "Nobody can see you.", false));
// The same heading without the arrows around it.
menu.AddMenuItem(new SeparatorMenuItem("Movement", false));
menu.AddMenuItem(new MenuCheckboxItem("Super Jump", "Jump much higher.", false));
menu.AddMenuItem(new MenuCheckboxItem("Fast Run", "Sprint faster.", false));

With ShowArrows on (the default) the row reads ↓ Protection ↓, with it off just Protection.


  • The cursor stops on it like on any other row. It highlights and shows its description, if it has one.
  • Select, left and right do nothing, and no error sound plays.
  • In a paginated menu, left and right on a separator still turn the page.
  • It counts as a row. A menu of 18 items and 3 separators reads 1 / 21, and the separators take up 3 rows on screen.

A separator uses the same font, size and white as a normal row, and goes dark on the highlight bar when selected. Use formatting codes to make it stand out:

// Bold, which is what vMenu's old hand-built spacers looked like.
menu.AddMenuItem(new SeparatorMenuItem("~h~Protection"));
// Grey.
menu.AddMenuItem(new SeparatorMenuItem("~c~Protection"));
// The blue the menu subtitle uses.
menu.AddMenuItem(new SeparatorMenuItem("~HUD_COLOUR_FREEMODE~Protection"));
